Vinod Khanna's replacement in Qurbani remake



It is the season of remakes in Bollywood. Hot on the heels of Don, Feroz Khan has announced Kurbani, a remake of Qurbani originally directed and starring Feroz Khan himself. The remake is going to star Fardeen Khan stepping into the role of his daddy playing the role of Rajesh. They have not, however, announced the name of a suitable lead for Vinod Khanna's role.

The good folks at Indiafm give us this-

The latest on KURBANI is that Khan Sr. has finalized a top actor to step into Vinod Khanna’s shoes [Fardeen is enacting the role that Khan Sr. had portrayed in the original]. But neither Feroz nor Fardeen are ready to divulge the name yet. “Yes, we’ve finalized the actor, but we’d like to announce it later, not now,” Fardeen tells me.
In my opinion, if anyone can do justice to the role of Amar, originally essayed by Vinod Khanna, it is Hrithik Roshan. Think about it. Hrithik can bring the same chiseled, smart look lended by Vinod Khanna in the original. Hrithik has portrayed deep friendship and a common love interest in Main Prem Ki Diwani Hoon. I believe he is the right choice for Amar in the new Kurbani. Your thoughts?
